The location
Nothing
Great value for money
Everything was good
La reception è disponibile ogni giorno, h 24, ed i ragazzi sono eccezionali! Gentili e amichevoli, mi hanno dato un sacco di consigli e hanno risposto a tutte le mie domande durante il mio soggiorno. La struttura è nuova, pulita ed accogliente. L'atmosfera è piacevole, giovanile e tranquilla. Per il mio soggiorno ho preso la stanza privata, che era spaziosissima e moderna. Letto e cuscini comodissimi. La prossima volta, però, data la cura della struttura, opterei con piacere per il letto in camera condivisa. La posizione è ottima, a due passi dalla fermata metro Omonia e ad altre fermate dei bus, comunque vicina alle attrazioni principali anche a piedi, con anche tanti locali e ristoranti nei dintorni. Certo, la zona non è delle più curate, ma è da considerare che certe realtà sono presenti nelle grandi città (degrado, gente senza tetto, uso di droghe per strada). Ad ogni modo, pur essendo una ragazza in viaggio da sola, non ho avuto alcuna esperienza spiacevole, nemmeno di ritorno dai locali la sera. Il soggiorno in questo ostello ha reso il mio viaggio in solitaria semplicemente perfetto.
Niente, tutto perfetto per me.
J’ai passé un très bon séjour dans cet hôtel en plein cœur d’Athènes. L’emplacement est vraiment pratique, à proximité du métro, des commerces et de nombreux endroits animés. L’accueil a été chaleureux et bienveillant, je me suis sentie à l’aise dès mon arrivée. J’ai dormi quelques nuits dans un petit dortoir avec des rangements, une salle de bain et des toilettes séparées, ce qui était vraiment pratique. Les chambres et les espaces communs sont propres et bien entretenus. Une bonne adresse pour séjourner à Athènes.
Perfect! Common room and kitchen were super clean as well as the rooms. Location was good but like everywhere just be mindful. There was laundry for a cost. AC, internet and charging ports were good too. The staff were friendly and helpful. You do have curtains, a plus!
Nothing really.
Супер локация, близо до центъра и метрото и до някой топ заведения и кафета.
Convenient location, great facilities
La ubicación, las instalaciones muy nuevas y equipadas y el personal muy amable.
El colchón no me resultó cómodo, era demasiado fino para mí y a veces luego me dolía la espalda. Pero en general, muy bien.
Modern. New. Super Clean. Kind personell. Excellent location
Le personnel est très accueillant et à l'écoute en cas de besoin. La cuisine est bien équipée, nettoyée régulièrement et il y a plusieurs poubelles de tri. La chambre était équipée de deux douches, deux toilettes et deux lavabos. Le linge de lit et une serviette de bain étaient fournis. Il y a deux grands casiers, un sous le lit et l'autre qui se ferme à clé. La chambre avait un petit balcon.
Les douches n'étaient pas pratiques du tout, il n'y a pas d'endroit pour poser ses affaires à l'abri de l'eau, juste quelques crochets de porte-manteau. La rue est très bruyante et les chambres mal insonorisées, on entend beaucoup les bruits du dehors. Le quartier est un peu excentré et est très mal fréquenté (il y a des toxicos partout qui consomment de la drogue en plein jour devant tout le monde).
friendly staff - the staff was suuuper helpful and kind. The rooms were really clean, comfy and the beds came with curtains
the neighborhood is a bit rougher, but I felt safe
Ho soggiornato quattro notti in questo ostello. Mi sono trovato molto bene. Cosa che non si trova in tutti gli ostelli sono le tendine per la privacy e qui l'ho trovata. Armadietto con chiave decisamente grande fornito dal ostello. Ascensore , bagno grande.
Nulla da segnalare
Tudo muito limpo, novo, bem organizado e bem aconchegante. A localização é boa, bem no centro de Atenas e dá para ir andando até a acropolis. Os funcionários são bem atenciosos, simpáticos e prestativos. Ótimo lugar!
The shower !!
Excelente hostel , tudo novo e muito limpo , uma cozinha impecável, funcionária da recepção que fica no meio do extremamente gentil , perto do metrô , mercados, tudo ótimo .
Probably the best hostel I´ve ever been! Large, cool design rooms with plenty of storage space (private locker and large drawer under the bed). 2 toilets and showers in a 8-persons dorm! Comfy beds and extremely friendly people at desk (thanks Joanna for the long chats ;) Very clean and beautiful kitchen. Loved the movie night on the terrace!
Please put some recycling bins in the rooftop common area and ideally also in the rooms :) A small shelf by the bed and some sunbeds on the terrace would be great, but that´s just being picky :)
It is very clean and just 8 minuts from the metro
Location was great. Facilities with modern and clean. Cool aesthetic. Respectful guests and staff. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others!
Nothing
calme.
tout était très bien
This was an excellent hostel with good facilities and friendly staff. I particularly liked the large, well equipped kitchen. The dorm room had two toilets and two separate showers for 8 people, which was ample. I liked the location which was convenient for food and transportation.
Nothing springs to mind.
Camera molto carina e pulita, staff molto gentile. Ci tornerei molto volentieri!
Di sera quella zona è un po' pericolosa, ma ho sempre preso il taxi di sera e non ho avuto problemi.
Camera pulita staff accogliente
Un po' decentrata la posizione ma comunque tutto raggiungibile a piedi
Cordialità personale Posizione Prezzo
Non cambiano gli asciugamani per pernotti di più giorni
Odalar temiz ve giriş çıkış saatleri esnek.
Hostel Atinada çok rahatsız edici bir bölgede. Hostele varana kadar en az 3-4 tane tekinsiz insanlar karşınıza çıkıyor. Üstelik idrar kokusu cabası. Konum olarak beğenmedim. Dikkatli olmanızda fayda var.. başıma bir şey gelmeden döndüm. Görevli arkadaşlara bir sözüm yok, gayet yardımseverlerdi.
The staff was absolutely amazing. Very helpful.-we were allowed to store our luggage even after we checked out.- clean- private bathroom for the room- small balcony
Wish there were more activities available as a group for the hostel guests.
simple
AC too cold
I had a very pleasant stay here and would definitely recommend it. The location was convenient, with easy access to public transport and nearby attractions. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, providing everything I needed for a relaxing stay. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with any questions. Check-in and check-out were smooth and efficient. The atmosphere was quiet and cozy, making it easy to rest after a day of sightseeing. Overall, it offered great value for money, and I would happily choose to stay here again on my next visit.
Todo excelente las zonas comunes espectaculares, el personal muy amable, todo aseado …la verdad fue buena elección uno de los mejores hostales que me he quedado
tal vez pueda mejorar un poco el aseo de los baños ya que si se les hacía aseo muy por encima especialmente a las duchas, al igual que en la habitaciones
It was clean, centrally located, and there were curtains around the bed, so you had a bit of privacy even in a shared room. The staff was very nice, and when I left my wallet in the lobby, they kept it safe and let me know via WhatsApp that it was secure. There was also a laundry room you could use, which was great for my backpacking trip. In the entrance area, there was a kitchen with a refrigerator where you could easily store food you couldn’t finish eating out.
It's very central, but close to Omonia, which is known for being a bit unsafe at night. Personally, though, nothing happened to me. It was also a bit of a hassle to share the air conditioning, since some people left it running nonstop for five days at 18°C—so I had to argue with my roommates, though it wasn't really the hostel's fault. I just didn't want to get sick from the AC.
It's a very comfortable hostel in a good location
Bellissimo e confortevole! Staff eccezionale!
Online
Puedes sentirte un poco inseguro por la ubicación si es que es muy tarde en la noche
So lovely and clean! Air con is very nice too and the ensuite is absolutely stunning. Also has an elevator and is wheel chair accessible.
Air con gets a bit chilly at night
the place was clean and orginazied
the stafff was not nice and ignored issues that I had, in addition, the staff ignored things that was stolen from the fridge and when I complained the manager refuses to let me stay
Excellent location Nicely set up hostel, friendly and helpful staff All facilities are kept very clean and tidy
Literie confortable Grands locker pour les affaires
Kurze Wege zum Bus oder abends weggehen.
Beautiful hostel. Super clean, everything new very comfortable beds, with curtains, light, plug phone and your own luggage store. Everything perfect, and the staff are the best. Thank you!!!!
I liked everything
Location, laundry service
Staff are impolite and cold. Materials and finishes are really cheap, sometimes dangerous.
Il serait important de donner des indications claires sur le trajet à prendre pour se rendre jusqu’à Retroverse. De l’aéroport jusqu’à chez vous, en indiquant aussi la sortie exacte du métro, soit Stadiou. Aussi, inclure le chemin en pointillé.
Attention, la clim des pièces communes s’avère parfois trop froide. J’ai attrapé un rhume.
Great bunks with curtains, toilets, showers
Very nice service, everything you need! I could even borrow an adaptor for the length of my stay. Very nice kitchen with all supplies and plenty of refrigerator space for everyone.
Guys in my room were very messy. Socks were everywhere hahaha.
Very very hygienic; also the staff, they are super respectful
Everything good, maybe it’s a little expensive but when you see that hygiene and good staff you will think that okay it worth
Personnel très accueillant cuisine bien équipée un toit terrasse petit mais accueillant chambre assez grande
LOVED the room, the bathrooms, the roof, and the kitchen. The lockers, balcony, and AC was so good
The beds were hard. The kitchen had coffee but no milk.
Ofrecen muchos servicios aparte de los básicos.
La atención de recepción buenisimo
Q había mucho mosquitos en las camas y el.calor y q meten a hombre y mujer juntos
Personnel super gentil. Tout est propre dans la chambre et lit super confortable. Logement bien situé. Bon rapport qualité prix. Bien équipé en cuisine avec machine à boissons et des jeux.

ベッドとシャワールームが汚い。
Staying at Retroverse Eccentric was a great decision! 1. Amazing staff: Thanasis, Dimitris, Joanna, and Andreas. All four of them were equally amazing! 😊 Kind, helpful, and friendly. Nothing makes a stay better than great staff, especially when you're traveling alone. 2. Before check-in and after check-out, they allow you to leave your luggage in a locker free of charge (which is not the case in many hostels). 3. They offer free coffee, which is a nice bonus. 4. They provide a free towel. 5. The rooms are cleaned thoroughly every day. 6. Each room has its own bathroom and toilet. 7. The beds have curtains for extra privacy (something many hostels don't offer). 8. The location is very convenient. It may not seem the safest area at first glance, but I never felt unsafe, and it's close to everything. Highly recommended!
A couple of small suggestions for improvement: It would be nice to have small shelves or stands next to the beds (near the reading lights) where guests could place their phones and chargers at night. Adding a few hangers inside the lockers (in the bedroom) would also be helpful. Nothing major, though—everything was very good! ❤️
Probably the cleanest hostel I’ve been in. You basically get a hotel quality of accommodation. Room had 2 showers and 2 toilets and it was extremely nice and clean. Casually met some great people. When I come back, I’m booking again for sure. Thanks a lot to Giorgios for being so kind and helping me out with everything :)
The staff are super friendly and the rooms were clean and comfortable. Location was fine, near the metro and restaurants or can easily walk into the old town centre.
Rooms were small and toilet and shower doors lead directly into the room so a little too intimate, it was easy to hear strangers do their business which was uncomfortable.
Rigtig god placering tæt på offentligt transport, butikker og restauranter.
Era lo que necesitaba
Everything was perfect, comfortable beds, nice size locker, very clean. Even a towel is included in normal price! Nice touches like the curtains around bed, and Geneva Guild soap etc. Staff were very helpful, and even helped plan out a day trip to the islands and gave excellent advice on using the ferries. I also loved the retro vibe as it was unique and would definitely stay again.
The area around the hostel felt a little sketchy.
מומלץ מאוד! פעם ראשונה שלי בהוסטל, ומאוד נהניתי. החדר נוח, נקי ושקט. המיטות מצוינות, הוילונות נותנים פרטיות. לוקרים גדולים בחדר נוחים לאחסון, שירותים ואמבטיה נקיים. מזגן מעולה! החדר נפתח בעזרת כרטיס מגנטי, אז זה מרגיש מאוד בטוח. המטבח למטה מצויד היטב (כולל תבלינים!) , צוות נחמד ועוזר, ובכללי מטיילים חמודים ואווירה טובה. יש פעילויות בערב למי שרוצה (כשאני הייתי היה ערב משחקי קופסה. D: לילה אחרי זה היה קריוקי.) בנוסף, קרוב מאוד לסופר. אז נוח לעשות קניות ולבשל. יש מספיק מקום במקררים לדברים של כולם. יש גם תחנת מטרו כמה דקות משם. אני הייתי בחדר עם 4 אנשים, שירותים ומקלחת צמודים, מושלם לפעם ראשונה.
הכל טוב.
I can't recommend it enough! It is exactly how shown in pictures. I stayed in the women only four-bedroom and it was perfect. Only had one roomie in the nights I stayed. The beds are comfortable, the locker is big enough, and has a shelf inside. The shower and toilet were separate, inside the room, very clean and practical. The room I stayed was very dark and silent at night. The kitchen is fantastic, with all household appliances you might need, 4 fridges to store your food, everything brand new. Every morning there's a cleaning crew who clean it (you're supposed to clean after yourself, but everyone know how that works, specially with young men). They even have washing and drying machines to do laundry (for a fee of 5 euros). The location is perfect, I went everywhere (Lycabethus Hill, Acropolis, National Gardens, etc) on foot and it's close to a subway station, which makes it easy coming and going from the airport. Absolutely perfect for my stay in Athens. (bonus, everything is old games themed, they even have three arcades!)
There was anything in particular I didn't like
The best place to stay!
The best hostel ive ever stayed in
Bella struttura, camera spaziosa, arredata con gusto e pulita. Staff molto gentile e disponibile. Posizione comoda vicinissima alla fermata Omonia comoda per raggiungere aeroporto e Pireo. Molti bar e ristoranti nelle vicinanze.
La zona non è delle migliori, soprattutto di sera c’è molto degrado nei dintorni. Struttura un po’ costosa per quanto offerto.
Ήταν πεντακάθαρο..μπράβο σας κρατείστε το έτσι
Nice staff, comfortable beds, clean shower, not far away from the city center
Pillows, a little bit narrow free space in rooms
Everything is perfect.Staff is very friendly and courteous. Location is perfect near to bus stand, AC works well. My best stay in Schengen countries.
All good
Yardımsever çalışanları ve temiz odaları
Yok
Everything was great, the area is safe. The staff is very nice. Near the center and walking distance from the main restaurants area. A very nice kitchen. And a place to work or study.
The rooms weren’t cleaned daily. I think some fresh air in the morning or air freshener would be nice
It's really clean
